American Grand Strategy

Beyond the Bush Doctrine

The Bush Administration's recently enunciated national security doctrine with its emphasis on pre-emptive regime change and the pursuit of permanent military dominance does not serve American interests. Nor does it provide the foundation for a stable world order conducive to American values and long-term well-being. This panel of experts explains why the Bush doctrine is wrong for both the United States and the world and offers an alternative set of ideas for a foreign policy more suited to the international challenges of the early twenty-first century.
